Learner Reviews & Feedback for Algorithmic Thinking (Part 2) by Rice University
About the Course
programming language. This two-part class is designed to train students in the mathematical concepts and process of "Algorithmic Thinking",
allowing them to build simpler, more efficient solutions to computational problems. In part 2 of this course, we will study advanced algorithmic
techniques such as divide-and-conquer and dynamic programming. As the central part of the course, students will implement several
algorithms in Python that incorporate these techniques and then use these algorithms to analyze two large real-world data s...

Great class...Luay's lectures and problem sets were a great continuation to what Joe and Scott started. I suppose I will get started on Course 7 shortly.

Excellent class in the series. Even if computational biology is not your thing, the assignments are really interesting, fun and informative.

The course is theoretically more difficult than most other Algorithms course you'd find here on Coursera. It is mathematical in nature. So, if you want a more practice-approached model, please search elsewhere. However, again, it is a wonderful course for understanding stuff in their conceptual nature.

This is really good course but bad thing about the course is masrks is given by the students or other person and some people give it bad marks even that's it correct that's why this is the disadvantages of this course .....

It is painful to take couple of days to wait for someone \\review applications so that I can move on to next chapter!

Really like the mix of theory and practical application

really having a hard time understanding this professor....personally I think homeworks are much harder than projects/applications. I learned more by goolging the stuff it's teaching on my own than listening to presentations. If you are taking as part of the specialziation, bite the bullet. Otherwise, there are better algo courses.

The worst course I've ever taken!!!!! Don't wast your time unless you are very rich and have nothing to do. They asked 5 peer revview to pass the course for each project, and they force you to read the optional material otherwise you can't pass the quiz. They only test the hardest part in the quiz to keep you as long as you can in each course so that they can earn money. Anyone see this PLEASE RUN AWAY FROM THIS WORST COURSE!!!!
